area restricted from people passing by. This area
around the machine must be free of all objects that
can obstruct your movement when working with the
machine. The machine should be checked for loose
tools or foreign objects, especially in the infeed
hopper area. All tools not in use should be secured
in a tool box.
Operators
must
at all times be located within
easy reach of all feed control and shut‑off devices
when the unit is running. They must be attentive and
prepared to activate the devices.

in moving machinery parts or tree branches. Keep
such items as long hair, shirt sleeves, and shirt tails
properly contained. Avoid wearing necklaces, rings,
watches, and especially neckties while operating this
machinery. Make sure the machine is in excellent
condition, and all the guards are in place, tight and
secure.

operating or servicing the machine.
Striped refl ective tape has been installed on the
feed control handle of the machine. This tape is
refl ective, self adhesive and has contrasting colors.
The tape helps make the feed control handle stand
out more and it makes the rear of the machine
more visible to a vehicle behind the machine while
transporting. Striped tape can be obtained through
your local Bandit Dealer.
